From 36265d984e9d2eaafe34f1bdada5ef860c483f56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eelco Maljaars Date: Sun, 19 Feb 2017 15:53:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Ran into an installation problem today that is linked to newer MySQL builds This commit expands the INSTALL.txt with notes when this problem arises and how it should be handled.
